Looking to streamline your organization's event planning process? REMS can help you! Originally created for our college chapter, we've automated the tedious task of creating forms, certificates, and advertising via mail for our 20+ events with 1500+ participants. Now, any organization, club, or institution can easily fork our project and customize it to fit their unique needs. Join the thousands who have already benefited from our service and give it a try today!

What things you need to run the software:

• A web server with PHP preferably Apache2.
• A MySQL Database Server. (Done and tested on 10.4.8-MariaDB)
• PHP Extensions pdo_mysql, xdebug, and gd needs to be installed.

1. Download the latest stable release from here
2. Create and Import the Main Database dump for MySQL-MariaDB from here
3. Create a Forms Database.
4. Copy the files from this repository to a location in the root directory of the web server
5. Rename member/secrets.php_ to member/secrets_.php

• Installation guide for Docker and docker-compose.
• Modify the default values in docker-compose.yml, docker/mysql/database.sql and docker/secrets_.php to your requirement.
• By default, exposes to host port 8080. A krishnaalagiri/rems and mariadb container would be configured and deployed.
• For only the first time, the stack needs to be restarted due initdb in database containers. From the second time, you can directly start the stack.

# From the root of the repository

docker-compose restart

A two-ended system (Both for admin and public) that'll automatically generate certificates and make them available for distribution. The admin will have to upload a Certificate Template and a CSV file with Participant Names, Position Awarded, and Event Name. The generated certificates would be later automatically made for distribution.

CDS Public (Collection)	CDS Admin (Generation)	Generated Certificates

This is an interface for the databases that are used. The administrator can update, insert and delete values from any table of the databases without having to risk cluttering with the structure or format. The interface is made as generic possible to support future development and extensions.

Database Manager	Modify Tuples	If Error Occurs

This tool is used to generate forms for events. Initially, the specifications of the event must be selected and a form is generated with the designated fields and a table is automatically created in forms-db. The form also has built-in validation for all the fields (emails, URLs, etc) and Markdown support for event descriptions. Once the form is sent out, the entered values are updated in the database.

The mailer can send automatically send emails to a specific mailing list. It supports HTML emails and comes with a pre-designed template. The parameters for the pre-defined template can be modified for the specifications of the organization. There is also a feature to create mailing lists to use with these mailers. A CSV of the emails and names has to be uploaded ana a mailing list is created.

A link shortener that uses the short.io API to render shortened links for distribution. It can make shortened link either with a custom slug or can automatically generate slugs for links.
